What about a pair of GMRS radios to keep in touch with a fellow hunter . Ease of use but get as much range as possible . So I think it needs to be 5 watt ? I realize that advertised range is not what you get !
What ones do you fellas use and are they any good . Make and model number would be great !
I have heard about Midland being good . BCA radio 2.0 version gets great reviews they are only 2 watt though ,used by lots of snowmobilers . What about Rhino etc.
Thanks fellas
